Advance the Science of Human Behavior

The Journal of Human Psychology (JHP) invites original research and theoretical perspectives that explore the complexities of the human mind.

We provide a robust open-access platform to bridge the gap between academic theory and clinical practice, ensuring your findings reach a global audience.

Journal Overview

Human psychology is evolving through the integration of neuroscience, digital behavior analysis, and cross-cultural methodologies. The Journal of Human Psychology stands at the forefront of this evolution, offering a scholarly home for research that is innovative and ethically rigorous. Our mission is to accelerate the transition of laboratory findings into real-world applications that improve mental health outcomes.

As a peer-reviewed, open access publication, JHP ensures high-quality psychological science is not restricted by paywalls. By making your data freely available under CC BY 4.0, we empower clinicians and researchers worldwide to act upon evidence-driven discoveries.

Research Topics We Welcome

Clinical & Counseling

Research on therapeutic interventions, diagnostic accuracy, and psychopathology. We welcome clinical trials and case series that highlight innovative treatment pathways for mental health conditions.

Neuroscience & Cognition

Studies exploring the biological underpinnings of thought, memory, and behavior, including neuroimaging studies and neuropsychological assessments.

Social & Environmental

Analysis of how physical environments and social structures influence human behavior, including group dynamics and psychological responses to societal change.

Developmental Psychology

Investigations into child development, adolescence, and geriatric psychology, focusing on behavioral evolution across the human lifespan.

Organizational Behavior

Research on workplace behavior, leadership dynamics, and occupational health in increasingly automated or remote work settings.

Cyber-Psychology

High-priority research on social media's impact on mental health, human-computer interaction, and the implications of AI and VR behaviors.

Global Peer Review:

Every submission undergoes a rigorous, double-blind peer-review managed by our international editorial board. Our reviewers provide constructive feedback to maximize the impact of your research.

Strategic Interdisciplinary Focus

In today's rapidly changing scientific landscape, the most profound psychological insights often occur at the junction of traditional disciplines. The Journal of Human Psychology actively encourages submissions that utilize interdisciplinary methodologies, combining psychology with fields such as behavioral economics, sociology, computer science, and pharmacology. We seek research that doesn't just ask "why" humans behave in certain ways, but also explores the physiological, social, and digital frameworks that enable those behaviors.

Our commitment to interdisciplinary excellence means that we prioritize manuscripts with the potential for broad cross-disciplinary impact. For instance, a study on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) that integrates neurobiological markers or a sociological analysis of group dynamics in digital ecosystems provides the kind of comprehensive perspective our global readership values. JHP serves as a catalyst for these conversations, fostering a collaborative environment where diverse scientific voices can converge to solve complex psychological puzzles.
